October 16, 2020 "In a few hours I should have taken a flight, to go to Cosenza to give the last farewell to Jole Santelli. But nothing. I'm also positive about Covid, I found out this morning. I'm fine, at the moment I'm not I have no symptoms. I have been super careful in recent weeks, but this virus is sneaky and dangerous. Maximum precaution and rigor: the only recipes to defeat it. We will overcome this too ... ", writes on Facebook Mariastella Gelmini, parent company of Forza Italia at House of Representatives. 

"There are no words to describe our state of mind. A great woman, a great friend, a precious colleague, an important point of reference for Forza Italia, a figure who worked her whole life for Calabria and for the South of our country, the first female president of her region, a fighter. We are incredulous, dismayed. Our community clings to the family and to all Calabrian citizens. The Forza Italia Camera group expresses sincere condolences. Hi Jole, you will miss him ", was Gelmini's homage to the president of the Calabria Region.
